It now plays Divx/Xvid movies out-of-the-box so you don't even need to boot linux. Right now I am using the PS3 to play pretty much anything (divx/dvd/blu-ray) with the exception of PAL DVDs I import from the UK. Those are the only ones that don't work...

I got to spend some more time with a PS3 today.  I even got online with it to check this thread.  It seems full featured in it's own right, I like the menuing scheme.

It seems unique in it's abilities.  I'm tending to favor it as the best choice.


Go for it, you'll love it. And don't dismiss games that easily either... Once you've downloaded Super Stardust and Lemmings, it'll feel just like being back with the Amiga. :-)
